The art in our annual Summer in Winter exhibition evokes the textures and warmth of short as well as long summer journeys, from day trips to passport destinations.
Mesas, concrete sidewalks, and stucco buildings work as minimalist forms fading into canvas and paper. Overlapping ochres form cashmere hills; thinned down these same ochres meld into stretches of beach or dirt paths.
Shadows give an escape from hot weather’s muted colors, yet bright colors still show up in cut-flower still life paintings or a dramatic sunset.
There is an immediacy to vignettes painted on location. Figures playing in waves, small towns, and summer festivals are unique yet universal.
The through-line in these paintings and photographs is a sense of place. A quiet overlook, dappled light seen through trees, or a broad ocean vista pull the artist to return again and again to a site special enough to chronicle in paint. Hiking farther to a specific spot on a trail or trekking up the coast to a secluded beach beyond the nearby crowded cove shows the artist’s process, how particular landscapes call out to be recorded over and over.
